It starts off punchy, and then eventually gets to hazy. But in the middle is some genuine comics analysis and introspection, and some damn fine books out this week. Jim Viscardi (comicbook.com) fills in for a recreating Conor Kilpatrick, and tries valiantly to hold on while Josh Flanagan descends into fatigue based insanity. Like Conrad's Heart of Darkness, but with complaints about left hand panel stacking.
Running Time: 01:17:54
Pick of the Week:
00:02:46 - Hey Kids! Comics!...

Conor's coming to us live from San Diego Comic-Con, and Josh is just at home. Actually, Conor's in a hotel just adjacent to Comic-Con, and it's early in the morning, so we make the best of it. More good books, with plenty of Pick options, and some surprising up and comers dot the list this week, with quality moving in the right direction, so it's a good time all around. Except for Conor, trapped in a hotel room with spotty wifi, and being sent to Star Wars corner *again*.

Come along as Conor Kilpatrick and Josh Flanagan take a trip to Van Halen City to talk about that week that was in comic books. And while Josh missed an entire part of a comic book and, if you listen closely, you can hear George Clooney the Dog, there's still time for more food talk.

Thanks to iFanboy patrons, it's Talksplode time.
It's our second Texan in a row, as Josh finally welcomes cartoonist and creator, Terry Moore to the long form interview show.

Josh and Conor are in the saddle, and while Conor is recovering, it's a long road. The fascinating world of Bendis' DC work, and what we're looking for out of mainstream comics remain the topics of conversation, and the ever widening lapses of memory. What were we talking about? Oh yeah: Crimping. And Josh gets cranky about dual Patron Picks!

Conor Kilpatrick, once again on walkabout, requires Josh Flanagan to bring in guest host and old pal, Jim Viscardi from Comicbook.com. There's some good Marvel talk, from a Marvel alum, and we get deep into artist appreciation, and ignorant pigeonholing of Judge Dredd stories. It's a hoot, and we have two books with "siege" in the title!
